I agree with the results, it defines who i am. I’m a social person, but not very objective, I like to meet new people, to travel, know new cultures. I think if we cooperate with others it gets more fun. I´m very directive, methodical and innovative, the results are correct. I like to experiment new things. I prefer clear rules and organized methods to guide my activities.I didnt agree so much with the second test. I like sports, writting and Reading, but i’m no good at maths, i dont like it.
On the third test i only agree “Architects”, since i was little i like to build and create new things, I was always told that I’m good at it.
On the last test Arts A/V Technology, and Communications came at first place, its was 100% correct, as we can see at the previous test, i’m a very social person (at comunication), I like arts, drawing and innovation. I agree with the most of the tests.
It's true, you're a social person! Really, i can't imagine you working with numbers because I know that you hates it.
As you like build and creat new things, architect may be a good profession to you. Well I will need to build a nice house and I can't do that, so... Bete F
I agree with the percentage of Social, because it’s true that you are a very sociable person. I also think that the last test defines you perfectly! You’re so good in Arts! Is definitely your future career.
Daniela Pequito
I agree with Daniela too. It's true that you are very social, you know. I really don't agree when you said that you prefer clear rules and organized methods. I think that you are like a butterfly. You fly where ever you want. :) Zizi
I completely agree with the first test when it says that you are a social person, i think you are a very kind and fun person to everyone, but i dind't know you are a methodical person... Rita Pereira
